First dummy of Field Essays, Issue zero. Graphic design by Andreas Tscholl

With this dummy, we try to give each component of Field Essays its own visual carrier and format:

– the work (in this case a poster size full colour image of Pick of Sticks, a new work by LucyandBart)
– the process (a transcript of LucyandBart talking while working + black and white snapshots)
– the frame (an essay by Marek Pokropski in phenomenology & embodiment)
– the notes (associative notes on yellow paper, written & drawn to connect the above elements to one another and to design ethics at large)

To be continued!

About the Author

Atelier Sophie Krier (Lux/B) is based in Rotterdam and explores the peripheries of the design field through field work in public space and editorial projects. Moving images, language and social interventions constitute her body of work. Between 2004 and 2009 Krier led the BA course designLAB (Rietveld Academie). She lectures and conducts international workshops regularly and has curated symposia on design, education, craft, and visual culture. Current topics of research include the youth debt issue, our involvement with nature and the resurgence of animism in design. Since 2008, Krier writes about the nature of design processes in the self initiated journal Field Essays. In short, Atelier Sophie Krier develops tools for collective narration and reflection.
